Select Committee on Social Protection

Social Welfare Bill 2017: Committee Stage

2:30 pm

Chairman:

Such an amendment has not been tabled but an amendment proposing that the Minister do that immediately after it has gone to Cabinet could be tabled on Report Stage because it is a follow-on to the items the Minister has been discussing. It is up to the members. If the Minister is making the commitment to do it within that timeframe, which is sooner than the three months proposed in these amendments, perhaps we should consider drafting such an amendment for Report Stage. It is up to the members. The timeframe should be decided by the meeting of the Cabinet sub-committee and Cabinet to discuss it rather than members deciding on a particular number of months.
